I do have a problem, though. I need to decide my future / focus. I was thinking the CIO track might be the way to go… where IT and Lean collide. Providing efficiency and effectiveness on a strategic and systemic level. Or I could focus on strategy and growth. It’s really a good problem to have.

My program has been so supportive of me (and all my classmates). I know they care about our futures. It’s so different than the world I exited nearly two years ago. A world where I had to fight to be perceived as valuable.

But it’s not just my program that’s interested and supportive…it’s the executives I’ve met thus far. During conversations, I might proffer some idea… and they LISTEN. And they tell me I should talk to [this guy]. But they LISTEN. I’m not dismissed. Was my world really that broken? I’m thinking it was. But I’m not going to mourn what could have been, because if I had what could have been, I’d be missing THIS.

This is a field to be passionate about. A field undergoing dynamic, rapid, meaningful change. A field that positively impacts so many every single day. And though I know I’m not called to be a practitioner of medicine… I can make the delivery of that care more cost effective. I can make it more comfortable. I can have an impact that MATTERS.

So yeah. I’ve held positions in toxic, abusive locations. But it’s all good. I’m here.
